"A View from the Dark Side:  10 Years with the World's Unlikeliest Sustainability Partner" - Michelle Mauthe Harvey - Sunday, April 8, 2018

4/5/2018

0 Comments

 
When Michelle Mauthe Harvey decided in 2007 to leave her Washington, DC home of 20 years to become Environmental Defense Fund's on-site sustainability project lead with Walmart in Bentonville, AR she didn't realize it would be a journey of emergence.  The world's largest retailer is also the world's largest customer - and the job of Michelle and her colleagues was and is to harness that potential to drive environmental improvements globally.  It's working, but not always as expected.  Michelle will share some of the Walmart-scale successes, insights learned along the way, and the implications of working with unlikely allies.

"Easter, Flower Communion, and a few EGGS!" - Sunday, April 1, 2018

3/30/2018

0 Comments

 
​'Tis the season of birth and growth and transformation... And nothing symbolizes this season like flowers - and eggs!  This morning we will speak of the meaning of this season and we will share the tradition of the Flower Communion, originated by Rev. Norbert Capek, a Unitarian minister who lived in Prague in the last century.

All ages are invited to bring blooms and flowers to contribute to the Flower Communion and to participate in this traditional service!!   We will have a few eggs as well as sweets to share at coffee hour!
 
Our young people will be with us for most of the service... and they may have a surprise for their families and other adults at the end of the service! 

Join us for this joyous springtime service!
